See how President Joe Biden's executive order on artificial intelligence seeks to balance regulation with encouragement, read about the healthcare sector continuing to be a job-creating dynamo, find out about a VCU study that makes the case for pharmacists as healthcare providers, see how stakeholders are girding for battle as Congress mulls lifting a ban on doctor-owned hospitals, and find out about an evidence-based approach to improving nurse mental health.
| For healthcare executives including chief nursing officers waiting for artificial intelligence guidance from the federal government, last week's executive order from President Joe Biden offered some comfort. After all, it's the thought that counts. In this week's lead story, see how Biden's order seeks to balance regulations with encouragement across all industries. Specifically for healthcare, the president is giving the U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) Department six months to draft a strategy to determine whether AI meets the standards for delivering healthcare, and he asks HHS to create a task force within the year to create a plan for responsible AI use. | | |
